BHAWANIPATNA: With the ongoing anti-corruption agitation across the country, lawyers boycotted the court here on Saturday supporting Anna Anna Hazare’s demand for introduction of the Jan Lokpal Bill in the Parliament and took to the street shouting anti-graft slogans.
District Bar Association, Kalahandi staged a demonstration and dharna before the main gate of the Sessions Court. Judges had no way but to return to their quarters. Due to the lawyers’ strike, hearing of cases was held up for a day. The State-level Lok Adalat, which was scheduled to Saturday, was cancelled.
